A Sage Gun Buddy for free? Sign us up!
Riot Games’ 5v5 competitive shooter has become one of the most popular FPS games. With its unique roster of Agents, interesting maps, powerful guns, and exciting cosmetics, it is not hard to see why Riot Games’ tactical shooter shot up the FPS popularity charts just two years after its initial release.
Riot Games has also given players a ton of choices when it comes to in-game customization. Players can buy and slap on their favorite weapon skins, gun buddies, and other in-game vanities that can show other players their own style in-game.
While some of these cosmetics can be free, almost everything else is locked behind a paywall. The good news is that there are ways to get some free cosmetics in VALORANT. You can pick up a free Pocket Sage Gun Buddy by linking your Riot Games account with Game Pass. We will show you how you can do that in this guide.

Another Gun Buddy that Riot Games have given out for free is the ultra-exclusive Riot Fist Bump Gun Buddy, which Riot devs can only give out.

There are tons of Gun Buddies up for grabs in VALORANT. There are as many as 200 unique Gun Buddies in the game. If you’re looking to collect them all, expect to spend quite a bit of money to acquire them all in-game.
With that said, some of the most exclusive Gun Buddies can only be acquired through special limited-time promotions. With VALORANT’s introduction to Game Pass, Riot Games and Microsoft give players a free Gun Buddy to commemorate the partnership.
